route some specific traffic through VPN and the rest of the trafficthrough dialup connection

Hi everyone,

I've several clients connected via vpn to my windows 2003 server RAS
service, the problem is that i would like to create a rule or
something else to force vpn clients use just the vpn by a specific
application.

Nowadays when they connect the vpn all traffic goes through it and
there are traffic i would like to switch to the main dial-up
connection.

Any ideas how can i do that?

Any idea, suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Brgds,
Teixeira

That really depends on how your network is set up. There is not enough
info in your post to give an opinion on that.

I doubt that you could limit it to a specific application. You could set
it up so that only traffic for your private LAN comes through and traffic
for other Internet sites doesn't come beyond the RRAS server. This is very
simple if the RRAS server is also doing NAT for your LAN. You simply add the
internal interface in RRAS (which is the one VPN clients connect to) as a
private interface in NAT.

The other way to control this is at the client end. You can configure
the client so that it only sends traffic for your private LAN through the
VPN tunnel. You do that by clearing the "use default gateway..." box in the
client's connection properties.

Long time since I grappled with this, and we now use Cisco VPN client, but
my memory says box labelled
"Use remote gateway".
But I am prepared to be corrected!
